i think i heard this joke from Betty White

[–] bytesonbike@discuss.online 13 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Betty White is a tough cookie and I can see her saying that.

Had to do my pedantic duty and FTFY (I let the missing punctuation go), unfortunately. She is dearly missed.

[–] MedicPigBabySaver@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

Maybe she's being a tough cookie in the spirit world.

[–] NickwithaC@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Sorry. She truly was a treasure, and I can appreciate where you're coming from.

High King Margo the Destroyer, thank you very much

One needn't go so far afield. Just be a dick.

[–] bytesonbike@discuss.online 6 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Dicks are soft and squishy. Even when it's harden, it's vulnerable to pain.

Ehh my dick isn't sensitive at all. Too much abuse in my teens... and 20s... and 30s

[–] SanctimoniousApe@lemmings.world 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

That much abuse would make it raw, and thus painful - unless you used lubrication, in which case you didn't abuse it.

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Nah, it's a real thing, often called death grip syndrome. You can definitely lose sensitivity if you masturbate too frequently over a long period of time.

I wouldn't know as circumcision at birth has meant I never had much sensitivity. It takes a lot of stimulation to get me off - and honestly it's almost always more mental stimulation than physical. It's not entirely unusual that I don't "finish" if I'm not so mentally into it, or just plain run out of energy. I guess I'm glad I can last a long time for my partner's benefit, but it can be frustrating. My spouse gets the emotional reinforcement when I do finish quickly, however, since it indicates just how excited I am.

For science (and alcohol), I had a dude kick me in the nuts. I have not tested vagina kicking on a willing participant yet, so I don't really have any data.

I did karate for over a decade, and in training bouts, kumite, its co-ed.

Sex doesn't matter, skill does.

You get matched up against anyone roughly about as skilled as you are, or as your rank indicates you should be.

The women I fought and trained with would tell me that being... something like knee'd in the groin, taking a strong front kick to lower abdomen, or getting punched of kicked pretty hard in the breast...

Yeah, it hurts more than a lot of other places you can take a blow.

Makes sense, there tend to be a higher concentrstion of nerve endings either at the surface of the skin, or not too deep under.

Same concept with like, a blow to the inside of the armpit.

It doesn't seem to be anywhere near as bad as a guy getting kneed in the groin and just actually getting his balls crushed, but it isn't nothing.

Also:

Generally speaking, groin hits are extremely discouraged, but accidents happen from time to time, followed by a hell of a lot of sensei screaming at whoever was responsible for it.

[–] Hadriscus@jlai.lu 7 points 4 days ago

I can't claim to know what went through the mind of the person who originally coined it, probably some flint-carving ancestor of ours, but- I think that's the point, at least from the way I hear it being used in french. In the sense that, given the balls are extremely sensitive, it takes courage to put them out on the table. Or on the cutting board, or anywhere they're not supposed to be.

Dan Savage has made this point, IIRC he specifically said “pussy should not be a term for a weak person. Pussies are strong. They eat cum and spit out babies.”

"The best engine in the world is the vagina. It can be started with one finger. It is self-lubricating. It takes any size piston. And it changes its own oil every four weeks. It is only a pity that the management system is so fucking temperamental."

I'm fairly sure this has no real actual attribution to an actual person, but it seems to have been going around the internet since the 90s.

It could itself be due for perhaps a checkup, some maintenance, seems to be showing obvious signs of sexism with age.

Maybe change the last line to something about it being particularly finnicky about FOD?

A PH / internal regulation imbalanced vagina is typically not a very happy vagina.
